2026 college football rankings, week 8
How The Davis Rankings (TDR) is different
- Results only. No preseason poll, no brand name, no conference reputation. The TDR score comes from this season's games.
- Every number shown. Open any team to see each factor, its weight and the points it added.
- Reset weekly. Each week is recomputed from scratch, so a team can move a lot in one Saturday. Buckle up and enjoy the ride.

Projected Final
Hypothetical, not a forecast: assumes the currently-favored team wins every remaining game, simulated one week at a time (each week's favorites reflect the previous simulated week's results). Real seasons have plenty of upsets this doesn't account for - treat this as "if every favorite wins from here," not a prediction of what will actually happen. Not shown before week 4 - too little of the season has been played before then for this to mean anything. Always the current season, regardless of the Season selector above.
